SATURDAY LANGUAGE PROGRAMS

"A child is born with the ability to learn any language in the world," explains Caryn Antonini, creator of Early Lingo (earlylingo.com). "The older the child gets, certain windows close in terms of language acquisition, but so long as the child learns the language before puberty [age 12 or 13], the child should be able to speak with a native accent."

Dear Parent(s), Friends, Students, and St. Benedict Community.Our summer camp sadly ended yesterday. Together, we experienced a fantastic 7 weeks journey. Our little, and not so little students embraced our multicultural and language camp.We visited France, Spain, Italy, Mexico, Costa Rica, China, Senegal, Algeria, Benin to name a few. We danced to Hispanic, Indian and African rhythms, we cooked and baked meals from around the world. Most importantly we (students and staff alike) learned a lot about ourselves, people around us, and made tons of friends.We decorated pots and planted herbs and flowers. We explored paintings and art forms from artists such as: Picasso, Matisse, Frida Kahlo, Jasper Jones, Romuald Hazoumè, Shoshannah Merieux and Van Gogh.We visited our local Restaurants, Museums and Parks.It was an amazing experience for all!!!!
